Sputtering Targets

Cobalt Iron Sputtering Target has a stable hexagonal close-packed crystal structure. At higher temperatures up to the melting point of 1,495 °C (2,723 °F), the stable form is face-centred cubic. The metal has 12 radioactive isotopes, none of which occurs naturally. The best-known is cobalt-60, which has a half-life of 5.3 years and is used in medicine and industry.

Cobalt Iron Sputtering Target three common ferromagnetic metals (iron, nickel, and cobalt), cobalt has the highest Curie point. It is unique in that, added in moderate amounts to iron, it raises that metal’s saturation magnetization. Magnetic alloys form the most important use of cobalt.

Cobalt Iron Sputtering Target are also being tested for site specific drug delivery agents for cancer therapies and in coatings, fuel cells, batteries, DNA circuits and chrome replacement in sporting goods, luxury and consumer products.
